Radford E. DuBois Jr. turned 39 the day before this episode aired. He met an untimely death 5 years and one month later, being survived by both of his parents, his wife Sara (a former beauty queen and teacher), his five children and two of his three siblings. If I have interpreted the abbreviation correctly, he received a Bronze Star for his service in Korea (Date of Action 3/25/52). www.koreanwar.org/html/2011_2id_go_award_individual.html?key_2id=12039 According to his wife's obituary, Radford was also a teacher. The one thing I wasn't able to determine was the cause of his untimely death.

@@Heres_Johnny. In 1971 the war was winding down and Radford would have been 44 years old. Since he commanded a Mississippi National Guard unit, it's possible that he and his unit were called up to duty. But I would have thought that an honorable cause of death in military service would have been mentioned somewhere. Even so, I am not an unreasonable person. I found a web site that lists the casualties of the Vietnam War by state. His obituary lists Yazoo City, MS as his final resting place. And he identified himself as being from Mississippi on this episode. I downloaded the PDF for Mississippi casualties. He is not on the list. www.archives.gov/research/military/vietnam-war/casualty-lists/state-level-alpha.html

You can tell somebody from Kansas and somebody from outside of Kansas. I am from Kansas myself, and the little girl said she was from McPherson (pronounced Mc-Furson) and Daly corrected her incorrectly saying "Mc-fearson." I wish the little girl would have said "no, it's pronounced Mc-Furson." to be honest, the pronunciation of "Mc-Furson" Is all I knew growing up and wondered why everybody else pronounced it wrong all the time. Now I know it's us Kansans who pronounced it weird, but it's still Mc-Furson.

Paul Ford appeared in no fewer than 8 Broadway productions, winning a Tony for best actor in 1963. In movies my favorite line of his came from “the Music Man,” when as Mayor Shinn someone commented to him on the niceness of the day and he replied that it was if you wanted to go around in your drawers. “Three Bags Full: a comedy in two acts” landed on Broadway with a huge thud. It played for less than a month.

Henry Morgan. Oh my yes. “Droll and witty” is an understatement even from Arlene. Some of the most wicked observations ever made on TV in this period he uttered. His radio program in the late 1940s was a landmark of humor, even though he tended to mock his sponsors. He was great on NBC Monitor. G-T and Fates liked Henry a lot: he brought the unpredictable to a show that had gotten very predictable. They used him irregularly in the last two years of WML-Sunday and also fairly regularly on syndicated-WML though on that venue never in connection with Bennett Cerf -- for reasons that will become obvious.

Paul Ford Weaver (November 2, 1901 - April 12, 1976) was an American character actor and comedic actor who came to specialize in portraying authority figures whose ineptitude and pompous demeanor were played for comic effect, notably as Mayor George Shinn in the 1957 Broadway musical comedy play, followed five years later by repeating in the feature film version The Music Man (1962), (starring Robert Preston and Shirley Jones), and on television as U.S. Army Colonel John T. Hall on several seasons of the military comedy The Phil Silvers Show(1955-1959).

Bennett's humor is a very mixed bag. He's quick and funny most of the time when he makes an impromptu quip; his joke books sold well and for the most part hold up pretty well when read today. But when he sets out to tell a joke it most often falls flat -- and not just when he leaves out a crucial word, as in this episode. I think it's mainly in his delivery, which is heavy and lacking in rhythm. Timing is everything, and he just hasn't got it. I'm reminded of the story about Mark Twain's wife trying to shame him into moderating his swearing: Twain cut himself shaving and let out a streak of profanity. Olivia repeated everything he had said, hoping that hearing the swear words in her voice would make him realize how bad it sounded. But he replied, "My dear, you know the words but you don't know the music." That's how I feel when Bennett tells a joke.
@loissimmons6558
@loissimmons6558 5 жыл бұрын
Bennett gave many speeches where he had the podium to himself for a protracted length of time. It would be interesting to know if he did a better job delivering a joke when he wasn't faced with a sense of time pressure of having to squeeze it into the short segment he was given to introduce John Daly.

+VickyRBenson Fame and fortune can be wonderful. But it doesn't inoculate celebrities against all of life's problems. Plus it can be fleeting. The fall from stardom, especially stardom achieved early in life, can be devastating. Many eventually learn to deal with it and move on, some to even better things. Unfortunately some cannot handle it. I don't know the specifics as to why Danny Rapp took his life a month before his 42nd birthday. But when one becomes a star at age 16 and back to obscurity or a trivia item 25 years later, without a vision for the future life can look hopeless.

Bennett was not exactly a prophet without honor in his own country in reference to his prediction about Mayor Lindsay. The former rep had an eye on the governor’s mansion, but he managed to alienate on a regular basis, so his political career went bung.

Heaven forbid I should speak ill of Mrs. Lindsay. His honor probably thought it would be great for the Lindsay family image to put his lovely spouse on WML. Two questions come to my mind. 1) Were Phyllis or Suzy unavailable? Did the production staff assume that the wife of a progressive New York mayor will naturally be interesting on TV? If a list of the worst panelists is ever assembled, well - there she is. Gil Fates should have gotten her husband out of the control room and down on the panel.

soulierinvestments Note that in the "goodnights," John merely tells Mrs. Lindsay that it has been "an honor to have you with us," but does *not* add "come back again soon," as he does to Henry Morgan just a few seconds later. (23:48)

Henry outdid himself on this broadcast. Very amusing observations.

As I recall, Lindsey didn’t do anything useful for NYC…. And he just faded away..
